I can't run mplayer in the background. This command works fine if I execute it without the redirect
but it gets suspended if I do a >& log &. My real goal is to run it as a cron job, but it's getting
killed when cron executes it which I assume is the same problem as that I'm seeing when I put it in
the background. What am I missing?
mplayer -dumpstream http://2783.live.streamtheworld.com:443/WLSAM_SC -ac mp3lacm -dumpfile /home/foobar/s_drive/mp3/stream/bob_${DAY}.mp3 >& log &
